Hi, first time posting my almost completed computer so please do excuse my slow uploading and poor picture taking. Currently looking for somebody to help me take photos , so i'll do my best with what i have.


I always wanted a Silverstone TJ10 as my computer casing. So here is me dreaming and planning what to get for this project before going off overseas to study.





Well, the initial stage is pretty simple when i came back from studies... get a casing.. I got it here in lowyat forum from a nice guy DZX (he owes me the pic: to be inserted here)






So i dismantled it and sent it for powder coating and this is how it looks after, modding the side windows and putting on the fans.






During the time waiting for the powder coating, i went back to planning the theme and also naming it Monochrome.

Monochrome, a term generally used to describe painting, drawing, design, or photograph in one color or shades of one color. In this case a theme of black & white.


Designed a logo for it





the idea of the logo is simple, a monogram logo for a monochrome theme pc


Next is to design some unique items which will carry this logo: the mid plate & the Fan Grill

Printed a few mock up of the design & testing them before sending them to be fabricated.






Sent the designs to be fabricated, Meanwhile i had the chance to install the components that i brought back from overseas.
(i backpacked around with a Thermalright True Black in my bag, 1kg ....... what was i thinking )

Reserved for more pics =)

Lunch Break : Alternative use of the Silverstone TJ10 fan grill: Keeping the hot air inside the Instant Cup Noodles. !! Found this to be excellent alternative usage, weight & size also just nice !

I broke my camera and sent it for repair so i didn't have a good device to take photo but i still carried on building the computer.

So i'll summarized what happened in 2 months,

1) broke the camera
2) broke my gtx 285
3) got back my fabricated designs
4) got back my PSU
5) Installed the lights
6) Installed the rams


Voila , taken from my blurry iphone




Bought the gtx 470 to replace my gtx 285
Still lacked one more lighting module tho.

So i finished Monochome and got back the camera from repair

Here it is hooked up in the dark- Hope you like the pics

Thats all for now... I might be going watercooled so i'll be planning and re-arranging space to see if it can fit.

If any of you pro sifu in photography do let me know how can i improve my photos XD i want the million dollar pc effect haha



I also would like to thank those ppl that helped out with project. Those ppl that gave me information, morale support, discounts & savings. Almost all these ppl are at lowyat forum and this project is only made possible with this forum.
